E-Sailing Autumn Championship
Sunday 13th December 2020. Thirty-four seasoned and amateur sailors have been meeting remotely every week for a month to participate in the E-Sailing Autumn Championship on J/70s, organised on Virtual Regatta Inshore by the Yacht Club de Monaco.

Mathis Duplomb, a young racer from the YCM’s Sports Section kept up the pace to finish a comfortable 3rd and go through to the finals. The grand finale proved as intense as the championship.
